Carbonara Pasta

My latest carbonara was quite an epic fail.
bland, not so creamy and just 'un'delicious.
even my attempt to recook it also failed and even got worse. I added more milk, salt and some basil leaves to create that pesto effect but it didn't work to salvage my dish. when I ate it, I felt like throwing up, lol.
I figured that next time, I'm not going to wash the pasta after cooking it in salt water. I think that was one mistake. not sure if using just milk was also a problem - yes, I omitted the cream.
the butter was fine too and the ham was not too mediocre - though that was the cheapest one I chose haha
I have been washing the pasta under cold water to stop the cooking time after draining. that is something I learned after seeing how my spaghetti got soggy even though I followed the correct minutes of cooking time. well, what I should do next time is to boil the pasta two minutes before it becomes aldente when preparing a carbonara dish...

Sweets for my sweet, Sugar for my Honey ♪♫

~ my current daydream. Stuff I would do til August when job is over at Aetna.
~ with a little bit of magic - like knowing exactly how much ingredients to use and the costings...
~ I imagine buying a gas range oven, sacks of flour and sugar, then a bicycle to deliver my products. I'm just starting small y'know.
~ my products range from cupcakes to wedding cakes, pizza, yemma cakes etc.

Perhaps this stems out from my want of buying a new oven. However, i guess i will have to delay this as i don't see it as a necessity. Guess i'm just a little jealous, or rather inspired from friends and facebook people who post their creations. Not that i love sweets and all, but i like the "Art" of doing such stuff. I kinda excel in my Arts class back in grade school ok, lol. Also, I've been making steamed goodies, like the local puto, banana bread and even sweet tamarind bread. I enjoyed doing them for real.

whoah! so that's a logo, but not my original creation. i just saw it somewhere. Hmm, can't believe how most people think alike. 



Now here's another one, which is slightly different :)
I'm not really going to copy this ok. I'm just amused with the ideas.
You see, I can also create a website for this, other than having a facebook page.
I wonder if i should go full-time on baking,hmm. That would be nice - staying home with Z.
But when the rainy season sets in, then that would be a problem. 
We're in Marikina by the way, and the floods are quite a pain. So, uh-uh. Gotta think of renting some space... hmmm.
